If you’re thinking about relaxing, you probably imagine a curling up on the couch with a good book or sitting on a picturesque beach. Is the dentist not on your list? Well, what if we told you that you could relax and also receive the best professional dental care at New Albany Implants? Who that interest you?
With our sedation dentistry, our highly skilled staff can complete some of the most complicated procedures without making the patient uncomfortable or scared. Not only is Dr. Receveur an expert in placing dental implants, but he also is highly trained in administering various types of sedation dentistry. Let’s review his sedation methods:
Nitrous Oxide
Nitrous Oxide, or laughing gas, is a mild sedation that allows the patient to relax. It is administered by use of a mask and acts as a mild numbing agent. This is a great option for patients who have a mild fear of dentist and need something to calm themselves down.
Oral Conscious Sedation
With oral conscious sedation, patients take a pill an hour before the treatment to help them relax. Much like nitrous oxide, this method helps the patient relax. This treatment also helps patients who have a mild gag reflex.
IV Sedation
IV sedation is the heaviest sedation that we offer at New Albany Implants. This sedation method is ideal for patients who have a crippling fear of the dentist or for those with special needs. We also use IV sedation on patients in order to complete several procedures in one visit. This is a great service because typical dental offices have to spread these treatments out weeks or months and even refer patients to other offices. Not here! We make it a goal to efficiently handle your dental care from start to finish.
Our office is one of the few dental offices in New Albany and Louisville that provides such comprehensive sedation treatment. If you’re concerned about an upcoming procedure, call us today and ask about our sedation dentistry.
